Library trustees who have never before been members of ALA or SCLA can now join both organizations (including membership in ALA's Association of Trustees, Advocates, Friends, and Foundations) for just $100 annually.

More information, including links to membership forms can be found on the Join SCLA page. And don't forget that there are also joint membership options for students and paraprofessionals!

On Tuesday, The Association of Library Trustees, Advocates, Friends and Foundations (ALTAFF), a division of ALA, announced that the South Carolina Library Association is the recipient of the 2012 ALA Presidential Award for Advocacy.

It’s time for the second NMRT brunch! We’ll meet in Florence at Bazen’s Restaurant at 9:30am on Saturday, April 28. Join us for a great meal (dutch-treat!) and enjoy building connections with other librarians in the Pee Dee region. Please RSVP by Thursday, April 26 to Hunter Deas. And remember, this opportunity is open to everyone – not just new members!
